CHURROS

Steps:

• Boil the kettle, then measure 300ml boiling water into a jug and add the melted butter and vanilla extract. Sift the flour and baking powder into a big mixing bowl with a big pinch of salt. Make a well in the centre, then pour in the contents of the jug and very quickly beat into the flour with a wooden spoon until lump-free. Rest for 10-15 mins while you make the sauce.
• Put all the sauce ingredients into a pan and gently melt together, stirring occasionally until you have a smooth shiny sauce. Keep warm on a low heat.
• Fill a large deep saucepan one-third full of oil. Cooking with hot oil can be dangerous - before you start, read up on how to deep-fry safely to avoid accidents in the kitchen. Heat until a cube of bread browns in 45 seconds to 1 min. Cover a tray with kitchen paper and mix the caster sugar and cinnamon together.
• Fit a star nozzle to a piping bag - 1.5-2cm wide is a good size. Fill with the rested dough, then pipe 2-3 strips directly into the pan, snipping off each dough strip with a pair of kitchen scissors. Fry until golden brown and crisp. Be very careful here - if air bubbles form in the churros they can explode, especially if the oil overheats or you use old flour. Cooking with hot oil can be dangerous - before you start, read up on how to deep-fry safely to avoid accidents in the kitchen. Keep children out of the kitchen and protect yourself by wearing long sleeves and eye protection, and keeping your face away from the pan.
• Once the churros are crisp and golden brown, remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on the kitchen paper-lined tray. Carry on cooking the rest of the dough in batches, sprinkling the cooked churros with some cinnamon sugar as you go. When you've cooked all the churros, toss with any remaining cinnamon sugar and serve with the chocolate sauce, for dipping.To see a video of how to prepare churros, take a look at our churros ice cream sandwich recipe.

• Using a pastry bag, pipe 5-inch long strips of batter into the hot oil. For best results, fry only a couple at a time. Cook until golden brown, then drain on paper towels.
• In a small bowl or saucer, stir together the sugar and cinnamon. Dip fried churros in the sugar to coat. Serve hot.

QUICK AND EASY CHURROS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large deep fryer until the temperature registers 350 degrees.
• Roll biscuits into 1/4 inch thin dough snakes. Rolling the flaky biscuit dough on its side will simulate the ridges seen on churros when deep fried. Cut dough snakes in half if they are too long to fit without bending into your fryer.
• Drop each dough snake into a paper bag filled with only the sugar (do not add the cinnamon yet) and shake to coat. The sugar will melt on the churro as it fries to make it sticky so the final sugar/cinnamon mixture adheres better.
• Shake off excess sugar.
• Fry each dough snake until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
• Remove from oil and drain on a wire rack. Do not drain on paper towels. The sticky sugar will stick to it.
• Once all the churros have been fried, add the cinnamon to the remaining sugar in the paper bag and shake to mix. Add more sugar if needed.
• Drop each cooked churro into the bag and shake to coat.
• Shake off excess sugar mixture and enjoy.

SAN DIABLO ARTISAN CHURROS

Steps:

• Making the Dough.
• Add water and butter into a saucepan and bring to a boil, make sure butter is completely melted.
• Add flour and salt into the saucepan with water/butter, leave on heat, and mix vigorously until no clumps of flour remain and dough resembles a ball. Take off heat.
• Place hot dough in your standard mixer bowl, mix with paddle attachment on low and allow steam to escape and dough.
• While dough is letting off steam, mix together egg and vanilla in a separate bowl.
• Add egg mixture to dough & speed up mixer.
• If dough is sticking to sides of mixer too much: stop mixer, scrape down the sides and paddle, repeat until dough is smooth and playdough-like consistency.
• Place dough in the fridge to cool for about 10 minutes.
• Once dough is cooled you are ready to make some delicious churros! Place the dough in your San Diablo Churro Maker or piping bag and keep in the fridge for later.
• Oil Set-up.
• Pre-heat oil in fryer or pan to 375°F/190°C with approximately 2" of oil.
• We recommend canola oil for its neutral taste. It makes the outside of the churros crispy and the inside melt in your mouth. Feel free to experiment with other oils that you may like better or fit better with your dietary preferences.
• Frying the Churros.
• Slowly twist the knob down on your San Diablo Churro maker to press out the churro dough through the nozzle. Or pipe the churro dough through your piping bag. After pressing the desired amount of churro dough through the nozzle, cut it off with a butter knife or your finger.
• Place each raw churro gently into the hot oil. Please be careful! To avoid any hot oil splashes, we definitely recommend angling the Churro Maker vertically over and close (but not too close) to the surface of the hot oil.
• Watch the churros fry in the hot oil and rotate with metal tongs as needed to get the entire churro to your ideal golden brown crispiness (usually 3-4 minutes).
• Using metal tongs, remove your hot, fresh churro works of art from the hot oil or air fryer and cool on the plate you've prepared.
• Sugar and Fill.
• After your churros have cooled a bit but are still warm, dust them with your desired amount of San Diablo's signature cinnamon sugars.
• Fill to your heart's content using a squeeze bottle or one of San Diablo's re-usable filling bottles with Dulce de Leche, Nutella or Sweet Cream.
• Pro tip: get creative with what you have around like honeys, jams, nut butters and syrups! And for added flavor "pop," we humbly suggest sprinkling your churro with some pink Himalayan salt!
• Repeat. Often. CONGRATS! You're well on your way to being a churro master!

HOW TO MAKE PERFECT CHURROS EVERY TIME RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the chocolate dipping sauce: Add the chocolate chips to a medium bowl and set aside.
• In a small saucepan, heat the cream over medium heat until beginning gently simmer. Add the cayenne and cinnamon, then remove the pot from the heat.
• Pour the hot cream mixture over the chocolate, then let sit for 2-3 minutes to soften the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and keep warm until ready to serve.
• Make the churros: Fill a 12-inch cast iron skillet with 1½ inches of canola oil. Heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 370°F (188°C). Line a baking sheet with 2 layers of paper towels and set a wire rack on top.
• Meanwhile, in a small stainless steel saucepan, combine the water, milk, 1 tablespoon sugar, the salt, butter, and vanilla bean seeds and pod. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
• Once boiling, remove the vanilla bean pod, then add the flour all at once. Reduce the heat to medium-low and stir with a wooden spoon until the dough comes together in a ball and no longer sticks to the pan, about 5 minutes.
• Immediately transfer the dough to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and let cool for 5 minutes.
• With the mixer running on medium speed, add the eggs, 1 at a time, and beat until completely incorporated before adding the next, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. The dough should be smooth and creamy, like a thick custard.
• Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a 6B open star tip. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the remaining ½ cup sugar and the cinnamon.
• Working in batches of about 4 churros at a time to avoid overcrowding the pan, pipe the dough into the hot oil in 5-6-inch lengths, using a pair of kitchen scissors to snip off the dough at the end of the piping tip. Cook, turning the churros frequently, until golden brown all over, 3-4 minutes. Transfer to the wire rack to drain for about 15 seconds, then toss in the cinnamon sugar until well coated. Transfer to a serving dish. Repeat with the remaining churros, letting the oil return to temperature between batches.
• Serve the churros immediately with the chocolate sauce for dipping.
• Enjoy!
